Robust, reliable, and stable, ensuring high availability for critical integrations
I would rate the scalability an eight out of ten; it is a highly scalable solution. We have around 200 end users using this solution in our company. We use it to its maximum capacity. However, it's not for P1 applications, but definitely for severity two cases (P2 level). It integrates critical applications, but it's not a platform that, if it stops, the entire system would come down. So, it's more like a severity two level. However, it has the potential to eventually become a P1 platform. Not exactly P1 applications, but a P1 platform. Because now we are still in the transition to migrate everything, all the integrations to Mule Anypoint Platform. But once it's done, then this platform becomes critical. Because even now, we have point-to-point connections.

A highly stable solution that can be used to change data capture in legacy systems
Qlik Replicate has allowed us to change data capture in legacy systems We use Qlik Replicate to change data capture of databases in production environments. Qlik Replicate is a little fuzzy sometimes as to how it's priced. It would be better if the solution’s pricing were more obvious. I have…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The use of ACK is valuable."
"Good interface, simple to use and stable."
"This is a good platform for designing, flowing out APIs, and then doing API-based integrations."
"Messaging and queueing solution that has good stability and scalability. It can be used for a variety of messaging types."
"It has improved our organization a lot because of the increase in productivity, and it has simplified the development of products. MuleSoft Anypoint Platform is a highly effective tool where you can build integrations so effectively. If you establish the integration platform, it increases productivity. It helps us to do effective re-authentication, and it speeds the integration."
"The solution's deployment and proxy processes are very good."
"The solution is scalable, and its performance is quite good."
"Overall, it is a pretty good product. It is also very scalable."
"Great with replicating and updating records."
"It is only meant to capture data from the log files, get the data, and transfer it, read that table structure, create the table structure, and transfer the data whenever there is a change."
"A pretty good series of connectors is one of the best features of Qlik Replicate."
"A valuable feature of Qlik Replicate is that you do not need ETL. It's easy to use—you choose two systems and it automatically replicates them. Even if there is no CDC available, if you insert it and update it, and there is nothing to find out, then you can use Qlik Replicate. It's a good product."
"The main valuable feature is its real-time change data capture (CDC) capabilities, which process data with minimal latency. There is not much delay. It also performs well with batch-wise data applications."
"The most useful functions of Qlik Replicate are the data manipulation to transformations."
"The most valuable features of Qlik Replicate are its CDC performance and trigger functions. CDC feature is important to the financial industry."
"Qlik Replicate stands out with its cutting-edge technology and its ability to handle diverse data management tasks. This powerful tool allows us to efficiently and swiftly load data into various data stores or destinations, while also enabling easy distribution across different endpoints. A notable feature is its capability to reload data from multiple sources by creating multiple tasks within a brief timeframe of fifteen to twenty minutes. This eliminates the need for manual intervention and ensures quick data loading from different tables."
 

Cons

"What I hear from my customers is that it's very expensive compared to the cost of other integration suites. The cost keeps increasing. MuleSoft should come up with customization factors by using a different way of getting the cost-related stuff to attract customers. That is, they should come up with some cost optimizations."
"The inclusion of GenAI in the tool can be good since it is an area that is currently unavailable in the solution."
"The compatibility with vendors can be improved. Microsoft Azure heavily uses single software."
"An on-premise setup requires special skills and you need a lot of professional services."
"When we are integrating with other applications, readily available connectors make it easy. However, when it comes to external applications, connectivity isn't as straightforward."
"It should give better control over account management."
"Information on monitoring could be improved."
"It would be better if we had a clearer view of the solution's future releases."
"This product could be improved by providing more insight regarding errors. One of our customers that uses Qlik Replicate has had an issue. We tried to debug it, but we could not trace the error message. The infrastructure site should give us more insight about errors. Qlik Replicate is not a business solution, it's an IT solution. The reporting tools and bug site should be improved."
"Support for this product is not great. It needs to be improved."
"It's not possible to replicate the QVC files in data analytics."
"Some features can also be overly dependent on each other. So, there is room for improvement."
"The product should improve its licensing limitation."
"The UI and data version control can be improved."
"In the next release, I would like to see closer integration with data catalyst."
"In various scenarios, an important consideration is when we encounter issues and Qlik Replicate suggests reloading a specific table. If we face any problems or encounter errors with that table, it becomes necessary to make a change in Qlik Replicate. Performing a full reload every time is not feasible or practical. Instead, we should identify the specific issues and address them without repeating the entire reloading process. Based on this approach, we can investigate and resolve the problem by performing targeted loads from the source itself. This change aligns with my perspective and is something I would like to implement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's pricing is cheaper than other RPAs' since it is execution-based. Other RPAs charge based on subscriptions."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing as four or five out of ten."
"The tool is heavily bundle-priced. I rate the solution’s pricing five on a scale of ten, where one is expensive, and ten is cheap."
"The product comes complete at one set price including support."
"The pricing of our solution is highly competitive. While it may not be categorized as exceptionally low, it is certainly more affordable compared to IBM."
"The product's price seems to be competent in comparison to other products in the market."
"I can't give you a straightforward answer because sometimes it depends on the usage. If you're going to have fewer than 5 million messages, it is free of cost. If you're going to have more than 5 million messages, they're going to charge $100 per month"
"Making changes in Anypoint MQ is expensive."
"Overall, Qlik is an expensive solution. You need to pay for all additional features that you would like to use."
"Qlik Replicate is mainly suited for large companies. However, it is too costly for small businesses. Its pricing is high."
"Qlik Replicate is not expensive, compared to GoldenGate."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive, I rate Qlik Replicate's pricing a nine out of ten."
"Pricing for this solution is very reasonable."
"Unlike Azure, where you pay based on consumption, Qlik Replicate seems to charge per endpoint."
